Mie Yanagicha Bancha - A feast for the senses
The Mie Yanagicha Bancha embodies the essence of a lovingly tended tea garden in the picturesque Mie prefecture. About two weeks after the first harvest, when the previously unnoticed small leaves and leaf stems have developed into more robust structures, the careful collection of these exquisite ingredients begins. Despite their increased size, the tea retains an admirable delicacy that characterizes the finer leaves of the Mie region. In the cup, a gentle, harmonious taste unfolds, underpinned by subtle, lemony nuances - a perfect balance of mildness and freshness that connoisseurs will appreciate all year round.

A place of tradition and innovation
Behind Mie Yanagicha Bancha is the renowned organic tea garden of the Hayashi family, nestled between the green hills of Honshu. This garden is run by the visionary pioneer Iwao Hayashi, who has been revolutionizing organic cultivation in Japan since the late 1970s. The tea garden gets its special touch from the "half fukamushi" method, which gives the tea leaves both their strong color and their unmistakable taste by means of a prolonged steaming process. May you enjoy this tea, knowing that every cup carries the story of an ongoing commitment to sustainability.
